The gothic-dressed girl stood against the wall, arms crossed, as her slender index finger gently tapped her arm.
She furrowed her brows in thought for a moment before asking coolly, "That strange thing, what else did it say?"
"That's all it said." Xiao Hongmao paused, then spoke softly, "Actually, I didn't want to bring this up since what the strange thing says isn't reliable, but you're living in the Old Jingmai District, and it just so happens that you have an albino sister at home."
As she spoke, she lifted her head to glance at Ash's face with her peripheral vision before continuing.
"So I thought, maybe what it was talking about is related to you. If I'm being too nosy, I apologize in advance, and I hope you won't be mad at me."
"I understand, be careful on your way back," Ash said, while looking down and pondering absently. The grey ribbon tied on top of her head swayed, brushing against her delicate shoulders.
